Master Player Race List Version 2.0:
Originally composed by Wolfen Fenrison
Updated by AZNsupermarket
This is a master list of races available to player for first level characters as described in Chapter 2 in the Players Handbook. As such all the races presented here have a level adjustment of +0 and hit die based on character level. The races will be presented by Name, Ability score adjustments, size, base land speed, and notes on what extraordinary, supernatural, or spell-like abilities they may have, favored class(es), type and subtype if any, and lastly book and page number for reference. This was made to make referencing character races easier and now includes races that were omitted from the earlier editions. Enjoy!

Here is a surprising bit of trivia for you. In a little known issue of dragon magazine which ran in April 2004, a 3.5 Oriental Adventures update that was printed. This updated a whole bunch of things the Oriental Adventures universe.

The following changes occurred to the races:

Hengeyokai were changed to having no level adjustment and gained the humanoid type with the shapechanger subtype, instead of the obsolete shapechanger type. Vanaara also lost all their ability score adjustments. Humans from the lion clan now gain the intimidate skill instead of the obsolete knowledge (war).

technically the Shyft (FF) get the +0 LA.... and keeps the Spell-like that grants it the +3 LA, more or less. but i would maybe have it as a +2. and then the Fey'ri (FR:Monsters, FR:Races) would get a +0 LA with the Lesser Planetouched options from the FR:Player's Guide.

The people who created the lesser planetouched rules had to have had a screw lose in their head... I'm debating whether I should include such a race, which would correct RAW, but not Rules as Intended.
BTW I couldn't find Shyft in the fiend folio.

I believe you may have missed the Empty Vessel for the Enlightened, not sure on the name there, but they're the hosts for the evil Quori spirits, at least I think they're LA+0, but they might be +1, not sure if they are in Races of Faerun or the Campaign Setting book

but hey... it doesnt really specify which planetouched do and dont apply
so its 2 to the DM

I'm just a little surprised that they nevered erratad "lesser planetouched" to "lesser genasi". It always seemed like what they intended. I could actually get behind that rule, as opposed to a blanket "lesser" of all planetouched.

I'm really only doing wotc published races. I only left the original dragonlance stuff in their because the original author, Wolfen Fenrison, put them in there. So now it's wotc and dragonlance races. If I find that there are a lot more dragonlance stuff out there that I don't know about, I'll probably just get rid of the dragonlance stuff completely from the list because Dragonlance isn't published by wotc (wotc only lisences to them).

Star Wars Saga Edition is by far the best RPG that Wizards of the Coast has ever published.

I once asked the question (in D&D 3.5) "Does a Druid4/Wizard3/ArcaneHierophant1 have Wildshape?". Jesse Decker and Andy Collins: Yes and the text is clear and can't be interpreted differently. Rich Redman and Ed Stark: No and the text is clear and can't be interpreted differently. Skip Williams: Lol, it's worded ambiguously and entirely not how I intended it. (Cust. Serv.

1. Yes, I have already included dragonlance races (for the time being)
2. No, technically dragonlance isn't "published" by wotc, it is licensced by them
3. What does this mean? Wotc doesn't write what's in dragonlance, another company pays wotc to obtain the ability to write it under the wotc logo.
4. The reason I have include dragonlance (for the time being) is that the original author did the same. I have merely updated his original list because it had been years since he updated the list himself.
